To ensure that foresight studies contribute to the common good and remain sustainable, it is crucial to incorporate certain principles and practices. Foresight studies are essential for anticipating future challenges and opportunities, and their impact is maximized when they prioritize sustainability and societal well-being. Key considerations include inclusive and diverse participation, a long-term focus on sustainability, an interdisciplinary approach, ethical considerations, continuous monitoring, and transparency

Today, it is a changed city, providing housing to the majority of Rabat’s working class, with a modern tram linking the two cities. Morocco’s ‘Cities without Slums’ programme, launched ...
